Hey, they're bunch of braggards, with good cause.
Hey Ode, where I live there aren't any farmers markets* and one cannot grow
enough food to be more than a nice fresh treat during the very short season. I
do grow very nice egyptian onions and chives though. The onions are so hardy I
will be able to start cutting some in late March. The ONLY thing I've ever
found that will start growing that early and is not much affected by frost.
We used to get people who would bring up tomatoes, peppers, peaches, apples,
corn, onions, etc from Colorado or Utah and set up in various parking lots, but
they don't come here anymore. Well, one very seedy group came here last year,
but I wouldn't fish their stuff out of a dumpster for free, forget paying for
it.
The grocery store produce (of any kind) is gawdawful.
The nearest whole foods type market is a 340 mile RT.

*there is a thing that claims to be a "farmer's market" that is held one day
a week in late summer early fall for 4 hours a day, but it sells crafts, not
much produce.
